Since the refurbishment, I found that Rydges has given way to convenience, pay-at-the-bar, not very good service after the food arrived and uncomfortable chairs. Quite noisy. Limited food selection, but wonderful view. I was embarrased for my Sydney guest. It has tried to become slick, which was not what we wanted. I would not go again. More

OK so maybe several days in a motorhome lowered my expectations. But I don't think so. I'm pretty sure that our dinner at Zebu was the best quality and best value of our visit to Australia. We both went for the eye fillet of beef - very simply served, but totally succulent and perfectly cooked with just the right size... More

Nice place for an early evening drink, if a little pricey. One of the few places in Port Macquarie that take advantage of the waterfront. More

Zebu is situated on the ground level of Rydges. You have a great view of the water, with the floor to ceiling windows. The wait staff are extremely genuine and attentive and the food is spectacular. This is the best restaurant that I have eaten at in Port Macquarie, with NO close second! More

OK, so it was Easter Monday but Zebu was a disappointment. After having had a number of very good meals and top class service here in the past, service and attention to detail has seemingly vanished. The restaurant was quite dirty.....not just a few days worth but it appeared some of the grime had built up over weeks or months.... More
